Who says I can't become a Grand Master?

Chapter 181 I'm pregnant with my brother's baby

For an ordinary woman, fainting after experiencing a strong emotional shock is understandable.

But Aunt Su is quite the witch.

So what we're seeing is simply unbelievable.

Liu Wanrou and Mona were clearly startled, and the two rushed forward to support her.

Aunt Su clutched her chest, breathing heavily.

Her once rosy cheeks turned deathly pale.

She gazed intently at Zhang Lingyue, her long, narrow eyes revealing a complex and unfathomable emotion.

She tried several times to speak, but the words just wouldn't come out.

Finally, she bit her lip hard.

That was a real bite.

Zhang Qingzhe clearly saw that two rows of silver teeth sank deep into his lower lip, and blood immediately gushed out, dripping down his chin and staining his snow-white shirt red.

Aunt Su relied on the pain to awaken her strong willpower and stood up unsteadily.

"Lingyue, all these years, how have you been?"

"I'm fine! My mom and brother are taking care of me," Zhang Lingyue replied somewhat blankly.

"Oh! Oh! That's good."

She then took out a business card from her pocket and gently placed it into Zhang Lingyue's hand.

Then, he casually touched Zhang Lingyue's cheek, the movement incredibly gentle.

He dotes on her even more than he does on Su Nianxi!

"If you need any help, you can call me here."

Her voice was hoarse, but unusually earnest: "No matter what it is, you can come to me. I'm willing to do anything to help you."

Zhang Lingyue was stunned.

She was completely baffled by the situation—

Why would this aunt, whom I've only met once, suddenly make such a heavy promise?

Aunt Su straightened up.

In an instant, she seemed to have reverted to her former image as a strong, independent woman.

She glared fiercely at Zhang Qingzhe.

That attitude was completely different from how he treated Zhang Lingyue.

"You—you—"

She coldly warned, "You're not allowed to see my daughter again. If I find out you two are still seeing each other..."

She paused, a dangerous glint in her eyes, "I'll sink you into Green Island Bay."

Leaving behind this gangster-like warning, Aunt Su dragged Su Nianxi by the hand and walked out the door without looking back.

"Mom! Mom, what are you doing! Let go of me!"

Su Nianxi struggled and turned to look at Zhang Qingzhe, her eyes filled with grievance and confusion.

But Aunt Su's hands were like iron clamps, and there was no way that a little witch like her could break free.

Liu Wanrou and Mona exchanged a glance.

Neither of them understood what had happened. They nodded slightly to Zhang Qingzhe and quickly followed him out.

The door slammed shut.

The living room suddenly fell silent.

All that remained was the sound of the rain pouring down outside the window.

The heavy rain has completely engulfed the entire city.

It was accompanied by a deafening clap of thunder that resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

The branches of trees outside the balcony were violently torn apart by the gale, and some tree crowns were even broken off. A series of car horns sounded on the street.

Rain poured down the glass, distorting the outside world into a blurry blur of light and shadow.

Zhang Lingyue looked down at the business card, muttering with some confusion, "This auntie is so strange—how did she suddenly become like this?"

Zhang Qingzhe was also baffled.

He took the business card, glanced at it, and his gaze fell on the name.

"Su Qiuyue? That's Aunt Su's name!"

He frowned, a strange feeling suddenly rising in his heart.

My mother's name is Zhang Qingxi.

My younger sister's name is Zhang Lingyue.

Aunt Su's name is "Su Qiuyue".

Her daughter's name is "Su Nianxi".

What exactly is going on?

Why are there so many repeated characters in these names?

This can't be a simple coincidence, right?

Zhang Qingzhe looked out the window at the heavy rain. The rainwater washed streaks across the glass, like silent tears streaming down his face.

He suddenly really wanted to know—

What kind of love, hate, and grudges did these witches of the previous generation experience when they were young and impetuous?

Su Qiuyue dragged her daughter along, ignoring Su Nianxi's cries, and shoved her into the luxury car.

Liu Wanrou and Mona followed and sat down silently in the front row.

The two kept exchanging glances, neither knowing what had happened.

Back in college, the two of them were just junior students, while Zhang Qingxi and Su Qiuyue were well-known figures on campus.

The two got along so well back then, they always did everything together.

Everyone admired their sisterly bond.

But then something happened, and the two of them suddenly fell out after graduation.

They never saw each other again.

By this time, the rain was pouring down, making a crackling sound as it hit the roof of the car, like countless small stones hitting the car at the same time.

Liu Wanrou started the extended luxury car and drove into a white, misty rain.

The world outside the car window was distorted into blurry light and shadow by the rain.

Occasionally, urgent horn blares would come from all directions, mingling with the sound of wind and rain, making one feel uneasy.

Su Qiuyue leaned back in her seat, closed her eyes, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm herself down.

After a long while, she opened her eyes and once again sternly warned her daughter: "Nianxi, listen carefully. You are not allowed to have any further contact with Zhang Qingzhe."

Su Nianxi was clearly unconvinced.

She pouted, her eyes still red, but stubbornly asked, "Why?"

"It's not appropriate," Su Qiuyue said coldly.

"What's wrong with it?"

"Their family isn't well-off, they're not a good match," Su Qiuyue casually made up a reason.

"But Aunt Zhang's position is also very high, and her brother is Xia Qiwei's apprentice," Su Nianxi immediately retorted. "Their family may just be keeping a low profile; they will definitely have a bright future."

"That won't work either."

Su Qiuyue turned her face away, trying to find another reason, "How old are you? What do you know about feelings?"

"I understand! I'm an adult now."

Su Nianxi's voice suddenly rose, "I really like my brother! Of all the boys I've met since I was little, none of them have made my heart flutter like he has!"

Su Qiuyue heard this sentence—

Her full breasts heaved violently a few times, and she almost fainted from anger.

She turned her head sharply, staring at that stubborn little face, and asked, word by word, "If you could only choose one between Mom and Zhang Qingzhe, who would you choose?"

Su Nianxi was stunned.

My mother has always been this domineering since I was a child.

I always force her to make the most painful choice.

Su Nianxi fell silent.

Tears streamed down her face.

Seeing her daughter crying, Su Qiuyue felt as if something had clenched her heart.

She sighed deeply, her tone finally softening: "You really—can't live without him?"

Su Nianxi nodded, her voice choked with emotion, and said, "Yes."

Seeing her daughter so serious, Su Qiuyue suddenly felt a little scared.

In a trembling voice, she continued, "Where are you... at?"

Su Nianxi looked up at her mother, her eyes blurry with tears, and asked with some confusion, "What, what stage have we reached?"

Just as Su Qiuyue was about to explain more clearly, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the rearview mirror and saw two people in the front row eavesdropping intently.

Su Qiuyue gave her a murderous glare.

Liu Wanrou and Mona immediately sat up straight, pretending to stare at the road ahead, as if nothing had happened.

Su Qiuyue sighed softly.

"There's a coffee shop up ahead, let's park there. You two wait in the car, I need to talk to Nianxi alone."

It's still raining.

Go down and get bigger.

Rainwater cascaded down the eaves of the café like countless tiny waterfalls, cutting the world into blurry fragments.

The floodwaters on the street had overflowed the paving stones, and every time a car drove by, it would splash up a cloud of muddy water.

The sky was overcast as if it were dusk, with thick clouds hanging low, enveloping the distant Tower of Babel like a large, thick bundle of cotton candy.

When the mother and daughter got out of the car, neither of them wanted to use an umbrella.

Mona pulled an umbrella from the luxury car door and chased after them, wanting to open it for the two of them.

"Sister Su, the rain is too heavy."

"Need not."

Su Qiuyue simply said one sentence, then grabbed Su Nianxi's hand and walked straight through the rain.

The icy rain fell on their faces, almost as cold as their hearts.

Mona froze on the spot.

Only after watching the two figures disappear into the coffee shop did he quickly retreat back into his car.

That usually expressionless face was now filled with gossip. "What on earth happened?"

Liu Wanrou shrugged: "Sister Su and Sister Zhang, back then—something must have happened, right?"

Mona pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Is it related to feelings?"

Liu Wanrou's eyes suddenly widened to their maximum: "Could it be that they've both fallen in love with the same man?!"

She gasped. "And then Sister Zhang won in the end?"

Mona blinked. "That possibility—seems pretty high."

But another question immediately arose in my mind.

"Hey! Tell me, who is Nianxi's father?" Mona asked.

Liu Wanrou gasped, lowering her voice even further: "Could it be—that man too?"

The two people looked at each other.

Thinking about it that way, that man is quite cunning!

He actually managed to get his hands on two of the school's most beautiful girls, and even got both of them pregnant.

Mona pondered for a while, feeling that this possibility was becoming increasingly likely.

Then, she suddenly thought of Zhang Qingzhe: "No wonder I felt that kid was incredibly popular with women. Looks like he inherited his father's playboy genes."

Liu Wanrou nodded vigorously.

"Now that you mention it, it's becoming increasingly likely! If that man looks just like Zhang Qingzhe, it would definitely be enough to make Sister Zhang and Sister Su fall in love!"

"If that's the case, then Zhang Qingzhe and Su Nianxi are half-siblings, sharing the same father but different mothers?"

"Ah! Really! I see, everything makes sense now. No wonder Sister Su was so against them dating."

"Hmm! Isn't this a modern version of 'Thunderstorm'?"

While the two witches were lost in their own thoughts, Su Qiuyue pushed open the door of the coffee shop.

Because of a sudden thunderstorm, there were very few customers in the store.

But it was precisely because of this rain that the café acquired a special atmosphere.

The dim light shone through the glass dome, casting a warm glow on the wooden floor.

Outside the window, a misty rain falls, while inside, the rich aroma of coffee fills the air; time seems to slow down.

The coffee shop owner was a gentle middle-aged man who smiled and asked the customers what they would like to order.

Actually, at this moment, Su Qiuyue wanted to drink a strong liquor and get completely drunk.

But she still has a huge problem to solve and must remain calm and clear-headed.

"Give me a strong iced Americano, and give her a glass of orange juice."

The boss nodded calmly and began mixing the ingredients skillfully.

Su Qiuyue stared at her daughter for a long time, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

Su Nianxi felt a little uneasy under their gaze and lowered her head to fiddle with the tissues on the table.

After the drinks were served, Su Qiuyue took a big gulp of iced coffee.

The cold liquid stimulated her stomach, making her feel slightly more awake.

Then she put down her cup and spoke again: "What exactly has your relationship with Zhang Qingzhe reached?"

Hearing her mother's interrogative tone, Su Nianxi was filled with anger.

She was rescued by Zhang Qingzhe yesterday and went home with him, experiencing the long-lost warmth of family life.

She had just spent some time cuddling in Zhang Qingzhe's bed that morning, feeling that life had never been so wonderful, when suddenly, her mother rudely knocked her down from her rosy clouds.

So right now, her mood is just like the thunderstorm outside the window—very unpleasant!

Su Nianxi gritted her teeth and stubbornly retorted, "If you want me to answer this question, Mom has to answer one question first—why did you separate me and my brother?"

She was asked a question in return again!

I was asked the same question twice in one day.

The first time was that kid Zhang Qingzhe, and the second time was his own daughter.

These two little rascals really do have a bit of a compatible temperament.

But the more they are like this, the less we should let them be together.

Su Qiuyue took a big gulp of coffee, trying to calm her racing mind.

However, the sudden consumption of the stimulating iced coffee caused her stomach to cramp.

She tried to breathe steadily, pressing one hand firmly against her stomach, and said, word by word, "Answer me first."

This completely unreasonable way of communicating thoroughly aroused Su Nianxi's rebellious emotions.

A thought suddenly popped into the little witch's mind—

She wanted to get back at her domineering mother.

So Su Nianxi gritted her teeth and pretended to be nonchalant: "We've already taken the final step."

"What?" Su Qiuyue's eyes suddenly widened.

My stomach cramped even more.

But clinging to a last glimmer of hope, she pressed on, asking, "What exactly do you mean by 'the final step'?"

Although Su Nianxi intended to annoy her mother, she still felt somewhat embarrassed when it came to this kind of thing.

Her pretty face flushed, and she stammered, "It's...it's that kind of thing."

"Explain yourself more clearly," Su Qiuyue pressed sternly.

Su Nianxi suddenly got angry and shouted at twice the volume, "I might be pregnant with his child."

These words shocked everyone present.

Suddenly, everyone in the coffee shop fell silent.

Everyone realized that something big was about to happen.

Su Qiuyue's brain short-circuited for a moment upon hearing those words.

She swayed violently a few times, feeling as if she had suddenly lost her support and fallen into an endless abyss.

A flash of lightning streaked across the window, followed by a deafening clap of thunder.

There was a "thump".

Su Qiuyue collapsed onto the floor.
